T&H Inspiration is on a mission to share inspiring wisdom. The goal is to have you pause, think, and reflect. Many of our videos revolve around the extraordinary teachings of Alan Watts that we produce with permission from the Alan Watts Electronic University.
T&H also films and releases original interviews with iconic people who have experienced successes, while also persevering through life's highs and lows. We look forward to sharing more of these perspectives and insights.
Our hope with these videos is to push your thinking. As Alan Watts said “No one is more dangerously insane than one who is sane all the time: he is like a steel bridge without flexibility, and the order of his life is rigid and brittle.” - Alan Watts.
Everyone needs Alan Watts in their life.

“The meaning of life is just to be alive. It is so plain and so obvious and so simple. And yet, everybody rushes around in a great panic as if it were necessary to achieve something beyond themselves.” ― Alan Watts
There’s certainly more though or else it would be meaningless
@@mase8189i don’t think there is a meaning to life.
I think the quote was saying that we rush around trying to find the perfect career, partner etc and that is just a never ending circle.
It’s just the mind going around and around.
We fail to see that just being and not doing is where the happiness lies.
❤❤❤
Life doesn't mean anything, it just is
@@rogerm3708 That would be so pointless though. I don’t believe that personally.
@@mase8189 It's what you make it. There's no journey that you are destined to go on. Accomplish nothing or everything. Everything you do beyond sustaining your need to exist are selfish wants. If my only selfish want is to collect enough handouts to get high while I am living on the streets, who are you to believe that I should have accomplished more because I don't meet your standards
"The mystery of life is not a problem to be solved, but a reality to be experienced." -Alan Watt 🔥🔥🔥
Experience a nightmare then.
@@Malumbrus still easier than solving it.
The world needs this man right now sooo badly

In esoteric teachings, the statement "In silence and self-confidence, you will find salvation" holds deep significance and can be explored from a spiritual perspective. Let's delve into an esoteric expansion of this statement:
Silence as Inner Stillness: Silence is not merely the absence of external noise but also a state of inner stillness. It represents the quieting of the mind, the cessation of incessant mental chatter, and the cultivation of a serene and receptive inner space. Through silence, one can connect with the deeper aspects of oneself and attune to the subtle realms of consciousness.
Self-Confidence as Spiritual Trust: Self-confidence in this context refers to a profound trust in one's own inherent divinity and spiritual nature. It is a recognition of the infinite potential and wisdom that resides within. This self-confidence arises from a deep knowing that one is connected to a greater spiritual reality and possesses the inner resources to navigate life's challenges and seek spiritual growth.
Salvation as Liberation and Wholeness: In esoteric philosophy, salvation encompasses the liberation of the soul from the limitations of the egoic self and the realization of its true nature. It is the journey towards wholeness, inner harmony, and alignment with higher spiritual truths. Salvation is not external deliverance but an internal process of awakening and self-realization.
The Power of Silence: Silence has the ability to quiet the noise of the external world and the distractions of the egoic mind. In the stillness of silence, one can access deeper levels of consciousness, intuition, and spiritual insight. It is within this sacred space that profound wisdom, guidance, and inner transformation can unfold.
Self-Confidence as Inner Knowing: Self-confidence, rooted in spiritual trust, allows one to tap into their intuition and inner knowing. It enables the recognition of one's unique path and purpose, empowering them to make aligned choices and take courageous steps towards spiritual growth and self-realization.
In summary, the esoteric expansion of the statement suggests that through the cultivation of inner silence and self-confidence, one can find salvation-a deep spiritual liberation and wholeness. By embracing silence, stillness, and self-trust, individuals can access their inner wisdom, connect with higher spiritual truths, and embark on a transformative journey towards self-realization and spiritual awakening.🤔🤔
I used to worry about everything in life. Then last year life changing events happened, I wouldn't wish it on anyone. It has changed my perspective on life, roles in the house have changed, being able to get up in the morning able to breath easy, talk with a voice, able to walk and manage tasks. Each day is valued so deeply with health. The world is how you see it. I see beauty is the world. Smile each day, be grateful for what you have, be kind as you don't know what hell others are going through unless they tell you ❤❤❤.
Very strong lesson. I too have had circumstances shift everything. I remind myself that none of us get out unscathed in this life. I’ve survived worse and I will survive this too. I see many people worse off than me and those better off than me… I am content on the middle road.
Thank you for your insights and allowing me to refocus mine🙏
what changes did you go thru?
@@carrietimmreck3685 same with you, what have you survived? what huge circumstance shifts happened to you?
If you flow with the current of life, it will carry you to where you need to go. If you do not flow with the current of life, you will kick and scream but you will still get to where you need to go and so in knowing this, just relax, let go and flow.
Be like water 🙏
What if the purpose is to not go anywhere? Then do we allow it to carry us along and just see what happens? Purposelessness👍
What a bunch of nonsense
@@natureisallpowerful Wu Wei. Purposelessness 🙏

@@GoodFooteFirst he just put together a bunch of gibberish and now thinks it's a wise quote lmao
I read a long time ago that the fear we imagine in a situation is far worse than the reality of the situation.
You learned that from Seneca
Namaste fellow travelers. This moment is perfect, I love listening to this wisdom. Beautiful moment, present moment.
Glad you enjoyed it! 🔥

I listen to something Alan Watts related every day of my life. I’ve done that for the last few months and I’m a happier person because of it. Watts is the 🐐
Don’t try to bite your own teeth peeps.
Reading Alan Watts in my early 20s changed the way I think forever...
I always love to hear a bit of Alan Watt's eternal wisdom, spoken with such clarity...
He was also a bit of a rascal, which is the perfect antidote to Zealotry

I was so focused with this decades ago. Somewhere along the line I lost my way.
I hope in 9 months you’ve managed to find your way some.
What i tend to struggle with is the "i have to". I mean nobody is arguing with i have to eat or i have to sleep. But i have to work is a different thing. For me at least. I mean i know i have to earn money to afford eating and a roof above my head, but it makes it a burden for me to know i have to do something to stay alive and keep on living. I cannot simply say i live in the present and go to work and pretend nothing is urging in me to find a way out of the "have to"
Yes,,exactly.
Imagine for a second that the structure of society implemented and incorporated the wisdom of Watts. Life would be quite a different reality as it is today.
I think we can all agree if your sitting in the office, we all search for his tapes. He is the father and the mentor need. Whoever you are out there, there is a light at the end of the tunnel. I pray for all of us.
I’ve watched his basic teachings let’s say nearly a 100 times, and sometimes i don’t even listen that well anymore. But then, randomly I pick up a phrase of him that creates a huge aha-Moment. A freakin genius he was.
I think that's the best process, I'm sure I miss half the point most of the time but the moment I get something It's like an awakening, I'll take that as a win and keep on listening to his lectures and reading his books. The ignorant will laugh at me but the wise will understand.
@@seanbain-j5r yes, absolutely 👍🏻
I like his book wisdom of insecurity.
Realizing that there is no such thing as time is life changing. There is only duration.

I work, I eat, and I rest. It is good. I am at peace. 🙏
No. There is no you doing any of that. It just happens. For no one. For no reason.
"Don't force it. Always go with the stream. You may need to use a rudder (LOVE this concept), but don't go against the stream." Beautiful
God bless you, rest in peace Mr Watts, thank you for posting this, keep it up, Amen
Man I so grateful for bumping into alan watts.
In my mid 50s when they creep in, I get the ' everyone else's lives have BIG PURPOSE, BIG MONEY, BIG PLANS' thoughts. Alan says live and love for now - you can't change the past, the future doesn't exist, just the crest of a wave that is THE NOW : be grateful you have that NOW. I try to kick those thoughts lin the existenticles and just live
if you had all the money in the world right now would it matter
The older i get the easier this lesson becomes. I used to try and figure out how to use the moment to not have to go to work. Trying to transcend it. All i had to realize is the motion of the tao says that i have a job and so i work. This is my life.
sheesh im the opposite. life gets harder and more miserable. I cants the 🇺🇸 it is such a shit ass country and not made for the living. its a nightmare for children and adults
Thank you for posting this. I always find these videos at the exact right time.
Wow, what a beautiful speech by Alan Watts! His insights into the human tendency to worry about nonexistent problems really resonated with me. It's so true, we often waste our energy and happiness by fretting over things that may never happen. This video has reminded me to focus on the present moment and appreciate the joy that is right in front of me. Thank you for sharing this profound wisdom!
Poignant....and soul touching, for me is all I can say right now in this Moment. ❤ Perfect timing, as it's said, for me.
Thank you ❤🙏❤️ Namaste
I send great Blessings of Love Light and Energy to you. ❤❤❤❤
That's amazing 💚

So, what to do when you’re in a limbo state then? Where’s the courage to choose, knowing that you might end up regretting your choice? Where’s the ability to stay calm in the middle of a panic attack? Where’s one to go when in total confusion?
- What about all the practicalities? There’s no getting around the practicalities, right?
Suppose I’m just rambling on here, but while videos like these used to calm me, sometimes give me a sense of clarity, now it’s just one big word salad to my ears.
Meditate ❤
There's nowhere to go and no one to go there.
I take Alan with a grain of salt. He had some amazing insights on some things, others, not so much. He himself said he was an entertainer. Albeit an educated entertainer with some profound insights, but an entertainer nonetheless.
It sounds like your anxious mind is trying to protect you from making a bad decision, as well as catastrophizing about any decision you may make. Any decision can be potentially "regrettable." If all you are doing is playing scenarios over and over in your mind, you may well become paralyzed. Perhaps you might write down the pros and the cons or talk to someone about it.
Staying calm in the middle of a panic attack? I've had my share and even had someone drive me to the ER. Other times I rode them out. I use the past tense because I haven't had one in a while. Meditation, journaling, exercise, (for some people yoga) and other therapies have helped them to diminish over time. Seeing a therapist has been helpful as well.
Most of our confusion is of our own making. Talking to someone about our confusion (and the reasons behind it) might give us a helpful perspective.
Practicing meditation, which is where Alan Watts had some wonderful insights, may bring clarity. It also helps us to come into touch with reality (the world as it is and not as we think about it). The philosopher, Seneca, said, "We suffer more in imagination than in reality." Not that we don't suffer in reality, but we suffer more in our minds. It appears that is what you are dealing with.
Cheers!
This man is beautiful
The time is always NOW.
There is good reason to be concerned about events that can be prevented, but have not yet happened. If you didn't worry about them at all, then they are certain to occur.
Peace to you all

Like moves in chess, we all have a way of dealing with such things that accour in front of us...
I laughed at 1:24 not because I’m ignorant.
But because I understand nobody else will understand
But seee. That makes you not humble .
Because no matter what there is somebody out there that feels like you

What a truly wonderful journey this is. Thank you.
I feel the presence of greatness. Very wise.

I'm saving all of the Alan Watts videos to a playlist. Good for reference and revisiting. Thanks, T&H, for these videos.
I feel the presence of his unique vibe,movement,joy,understanding and love virtues...❤☯️🌊🦋🌞
Love listening to this again and again
Alan Watts is one of the greatest philosophers. I will always listen to his talks more than once.
The wisdom of this man was unbelievable... but I listen to him... and take stock in what he says, and follow it. And the wealth I have built... could buy and put in your back pocket even Elon. Niiiccce. 🙂🥰
I have listened to Alan Watts recordings for eight years and nothing he teaches actually works for me. For example: I have work on Monday. It's Saturday. If I don't prepare for the week now, I will be miserable Sunday night because I know how things will unravel on Monday due to a lack of preparation. If I prepare today, I can relax Sunday night knowing I'm prepared for the work week. That's reality. Allan Watts lived in a fantasy realm of ideas.
I tend to agree, how can one truly just live in the moment without jeopardising our other responsibilities or goals? I guess we just need to TRY to enjoy the moment when we can and not worry and stress all the time.
@@Juniar101 Right. Living in the moment is the way to go--once tomorrow is given it's proper due.
It is a misconception that cultivating the Tao means that you do nothing at all except sit around and contemplate the universe and everything will be fine and dandy. I do not believe that Alan was saying that. The reality is that we all have our responsibilities in life - you can't get around that. If your job means nothing but stress even on your days off maybe this is telling you that your job is not what you want to be doing since you are fighting against it.
I once had a stressful job where I had to drive 2 hours each way in Los Angeles traffic. I hated Sunday because the next day was Monday. I spent Saturday recovering from the work week. One day I simply quit and went with a dream to work at home doing something I loved doing. It wasn't always easy but everything about it seemed to fall into place and now, 45 years later, I am still doing it and the other interesting things that have come along because when I had an instinct to try something it was usually the right thing to do.
If you love your job, then preparing for it on the weekend should also be something you love doing. If it isn't then you are spending your time doing something you hate and probably isn't right for you. Alan Watts can't fix that.
@@karinchristensen220 I hear you. I think you did a better job laying out Alan Watt's message than Alan Watts. For the record, I love my job. But there is work and preparation involved and if I don't do that, then my job will compromised and I can't live with that. So, my conscience bothers me until I do my prep for the week.
you have options. hire or have an assistant hired for you. do the Monday prep on Friday (that's what I do). or your current system. but you see, all 3 are flow. and you chose 1. best of luck.

All I can add is that this can't be experienced by thinking and talking, but only by doing
We fret over a future that hasn't even happened yet

Trying to live now without thinking about tasks boss asked me to deliver first thing in the Monday morning. News was delivered around 4pm Friday which didn’t have much time. So time to practice living now. No past no future

Never strain. ❤

Interesting to say. Some things that can be applied to most.
So, I'm going to admit that I do not know much about who Alan watts is. I assumed he was just a author but he seems to be so much more. Anyone know his story of where the wisdom came from?
Everyone needs to read "The Kid Gallagher Story " just once in their lives. He entertained all! He was a friend to all. He had a cool bear.
Love you forever master
Good editing
Thank you 🔥🙏
Alan is fascinating.
Thank you
I hope to achieve this experience of life.
I like coming here, not just to listen to Alan, though that would be more than enough reason. The reason I seek out Alan's channel is that I have yet to see a "thumbs down" icon
Beautiful ❤️🙏

When the student is ready the teacher will present ones self .. hi alan
What I know is that we all need money in this world in order to survive. And money is one of our problems mostly cos it doesn't just come to you,you work for it. So what is the real meaning behind a statement that says we worry about problems that we don't have? Whether we like it or not in reality we do have problems that's why most of us wants a better life or even wishing to become millionaires. Someone without a problem wouldn't even comment in this video and wouldn't even have time to watch a video on TH-cam telling them that they don't have problems while they are sinking deep into their problems. I'm learning so I'll disagree or question things that I don't know and believe into them. Questioning is the way into acquirering knowledge. Another thing that I've learnt is that we do not come from the same source and so are our beliefs.
Thank you x
Worrying about problems you don’t have is preventing problems before they arrive.
Thank you for this video!
Glad it was helpful! 🙏🔥

You know in the moment of failing that that moment isn't second to second but, lasting. Why, because we aren't stupid but knowledgable. The truth is, don't apply yourself to things that please others and find joy in poverty first.
You exist for one purpose. To Be. In the moment.
No effort and yet everything is happening effortlessly
Ok I like Alec Guiness in the card 👍
Mark, can you please re-post this without the background music I have a hearing problem and there’s so much Soundclash I can’t understand what he saying
In a way many of the things he said are true, and in a way, many of the things said are not. If there is too much to handle, it is very likely that being in the moment when nothing bad is happening to you can help. But if bad things are currently happening to you, perhaps it is better to cast your mind somewhere else. Or yet, another ideology which believes in strength may say that is when you should most be in the moment to withstand the suffering, but I am not strong.
You are stronger than you know.
The coal has the innate ability to become the diamond but a coal does not become a diamond without
tremendous pressure and time, in this
process, it has no support. Support would
only hinder the process. The same goes for a caterpillar as it begins the slow and painful process of becoming a butterfly. We may not see it but the system works perfectly, everything is in the right place for growth, for the evolution of consciousness 🙏

Thumbs down because not every thing needs to be a bloody music video or montage. Thumbs up to everything Alan Watts had to say.
